Naw I just remember talking to the previous owner awhile back. It was a sharp car but I wanted an ls motor. Front end accident is usually the reason for the front end swap. Its a nice car though just need a few thing given some attention. If you need anything I have a bunch ls and LT stuff.

i wanted a ls1 too but this car is alright until the end of the year!! it isn't perfect and does need a little work such as suspension and a few things here and there! i plan on changing all the emblems back to Z28 emblems and depending on how 6LE's LT1 front bumper looks when done i might change back to an LT1 front end!

Nice pickup but I would have held out for a LS car...also looks like he had some fitment issues w/ the SS wing and hood.

It looks like the hood is popped, but the quarter panels in the 98-02 cars are 1/4" taller iirc. thats why the spoilers dont fit perfectly on earlier gen cars.

i doubt the quarter panels are different in height...it the spoiler itself!! i have a fiberglass SS spoiler on my V6 Camaro that fits perfect on my Z28! the one on the Z28 is made out of plastic or something...its for sure isnt fiberglass tho!
